Hard to tell, as you, as a user, you accept their JavaScript :p

TPB did the same https://torrentfreak.com/the-pirate-bay-website-runs-a-cryptocurrency-miner-170916/

I accept to go though their site true and in exchange i'm viewing their advertisements. But when the site does not warn me or at least inform me that they use

my CPU this is called Illegal Action. Maybe i use my CPU to render some work i have, who gave them the right to use my hardware and reduce it's lifespawn cause even the biggest noob knows that if CPU runs above 70% the lifespawn of circuits is reduced.  

If the low quality low IQ and stupid hopzone owner did inform us upon enter "Can we use your PC as a miner?" i have no problem for sure but when someone act behind your back in a way that ruin your hardware this is cleary illegal.

MinerBlock chrome extension should do the trick.

Even tho, Webroot saved me from that already.

Is this addon trusted? I mean does it really works or ?

[SweeTs]

True, they should at least warn. Pure scam :D

It's all about Terms and Conditions. If they don't have this mining in there, then yeah, they can get in trouble.

[Trance]

Law has nothing to do with it.

[zavior]

if you go in hopzone and you see the cpu going 120 %

Uses this shit https://coinhive.com/

Nothing illegal (kinda low tho), it's like placing facebook's widget on your website. There are many bigger websites using it.

(30 November 2017 - 04:02 PM) You should not be worried about anything, we are very transparent in what we do and that is the reason we added the "ask for user permission" if you use common sense.   We have no plans to do anything at the client. This will be only used on Account Panel for players to gather gems if they want by using this method, or they can vote or they can donate.
